NCS Basketball
Gottfried Justifiably on the Hot Seat
After last season’s 5-13 conference record, the ACC media and fans of NC State were expecting this year’s team to compete in the top half of the ACC and at a minimum make the NCAA tournament. Some people(me) had even higher expectations like spending most of the season ranked in the top 25 and competing […]
Should Dennis Smith Jr shut it down?
This is a completely serious question. During the recent college football season, a few star college football players decided to skip playing in bowl games to protect their draft status. Certainly a devastating injury in your final college game could severely hurt those players that have solidifed their draft status. While other players still needing […]
ACC BB Update – One Month Left
A month from tomorrow, the ACC Tournament will tip off in Brooklyn. I’m curious how good/bad the attendance will be. But with 15 teams, it shouldn’t be hard to fill the 17,700 seat Barclay Center. I suspect that reasoning along with the desire to spread the ACC’s influence all the way up the East Coast […]
Your “And Then, Depression Set In” Miami Open Thread

Your “I’m Too Apathetic to Think Up a Cute Title” Syracuse Open Thread
OK, so the trip to Louisville wasn’t quite as fun as the trip to Durham. Meh…..It happens. Why did it happen this time? You saw it, what do you think? Effort, energy missing in NC State’s latest ‘lifeless’ ACC loss (NewsObserver.com) LOUISVILLE, Ky. There’s never a good time to question your team’s effort. It’s not […]
ACC BB – Midseason Report
To be honest, not every team has played nine games, but most (including State) have and that’s close enough for me. This entry will be a little longer than normal while we discuss the things around the ACC that I find interesting and I’ll spend a little more time dissecting State’s schedule and performance than […]
Your “Winning Is Good” @’Ville Open Thread
That was fun. Really, really fun. Like seriously, winning is fun. Let’s do it some more. – Dennis Smith, Jr. Dude is sick. Really sad he’s not gonna be around next year. – Still Work To Be Done Yeah, the Duke win was great and all. But we dug ourselves a pretty big hole leading […]
ACC BB Update
(Photo from News & Observer’s web site) Last night might not turn the season around, but boy does it feel good for now. I was concerned that the team might give up after the WF debacle. But they clearly showed plenty of fight in coming back from a big deficit and then holding Duke off […]
Your “Big Monday” Duke Open Thread
Yep, Big Monday. ESPN says so. Anyone else think there’s a chance ESPN was expecting two teams with a little more lustre by the time this one rolled around? Last time out, the Pack (13-7, 2-5 ACC) fell at home to Wake, completing a 1 for 3 homestand against 3 of the weaker teams in […]
